Forecast today: Rain/Snow shower
Although each village is different, most have an old core and have been tastefully expanded – there are no large blocks here. The scenery is spectacular throughout and the food here is arguably some of the best in any ski region worldwide – the Alta Badia valley has no fewer than six Michelin Stars, more than some of the largest world cities combined.
Each of the main villages are home to some decent low-level beginner zones, but the real highlight is the vast selection of gentle blues located above Corvara.
On the whole the vertical may not be huge but there are so many runs to explore and if you ski all the way back down to the valley (look out in particular for piste 9A above San Cassiano) you’ll clock up more mileage.
Adventurous intermediates and up should make the most of the Sella Ronda ski area and take on the famous route via Selva Gardena, Arabba and Canazei.
Unfortunately, the abrupt geology of the Dolomites limits the available off piste, whilst on piste challenges are limited – but there are numerous terrain parks and Alta Badia’s World Cup run (piste 17) is tough. The entire area is very easy to navigate due to the efficient lift system.
Each of the six villages offers something different, but for maximum convenience and best access into the ski area we’d recommend either Corvara or La Villa. The latter is somewhat smaller and quieter, but there is a decent choice of accommodation and prices are very reasonable. Corvara is bigger and busier, so go there if you’re looking for a more lively après ski scene.
As mentioned, food is a major attraction away from the slopes – indeed many people visiting Alta Badia won’t even click into a pair of skis. The St. Hubertus hotel in San Cassiano is one of only ten three Michelin star restaurants in Italy – spend the money you save on a holiday by coming here on a meal at one of the world’s best restaurants.

The Ski Club uses third party independent assessments and accreditation of ski resorts to determine a resort “environmentally sustainable” – more information can be found here.
Alta Badia has received certification from the Global Sustainability Tourism Council (GSTC) as a sustainable tourist destination, requiring the a destination to meet criteria across four areas, including sustainable management, socio-economic sustainability, cultural sustainability, and environmental sustainability.
The GSTC is a UN-affiliated body dedicated to enabling sustainable tourism around the world. GSTC certification is controlled by Vireo, an Italian for-profit certification and licencing organisation that manages several similar schemes. Alta Badia was awarded its certificate in 2022, which expires in 2025.

Spring conditions will dominate across the Italy throughout this week and into the weekend, with something akin to a freeze-thaw cycle moving into the region.
Northerly areas will see a few flurries of snowfall through the middle of this week; up to 5cm can be expected down on Thursday in the Dolomites, with 5cm preceding this in the northwest through Tuesday and Wednesday. Conditions will remain fairly consistent heading towards the weekend, before the freezing line drops dramatically into the weekend hitting below 1,000m overnight Saturday into Sunday.
This will see unsettled weather and snowfall at the same time, with 25 to 30cm expected over westerly reaches; this will drop to just a few flurries in the Dolomites.
A mix of sun or cloud – and potentially some snow – will continue into the new week.
